You are right, it does leave a space! However, you can type the word
"the" and hit the spacebar, then replace with nothing and it will not
leave a space. Adding the space after "the" dims the option to select
whole words only, but you no longer need that.
You truly do learn something new every day. Thanks!

I am using Office 2007. *I would like to locate all instances of a certain
word in a document and then delete them all at once. *Can this be done
without manually highlighting each instance of the word?
For instance, all instances of the word "the" and then delete them at once.
